I really thought they would have ‘fixed’ the stupid ‘Generic blue screen PC’ icon that shows up for SMB shares. Unfortunately they haven’t. Even though the ‘pc’ in question is *not* a Windows PC but a server running Linux with Samba (Windows filesharing protocol).

its funny because I just saw the new time machine icon in action and its a great little feature!

The shareppint folder design speaks again to the uglinesss of all of the system folders in leopard. Personally I’m in the camp of peoplewhp think that the folder shapes should make their purpose clear.

Thanks for this post!
